Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael.

Speaker 2 (00:00):
Your morning show can be heard live five to eight
am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio,
or Columbus, Georgia. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and we're grateful you're here now. Enjoy
the podcast well two.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Three, starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding, because we're in this together.
This is your morning show with Michael o'bill Trump.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
A judge is dismissing two criminal counts against former President
Trump in his election interference case in Georgia. One Democrat
senator believes Americans are going to be shocked and appalled
when they see the interim report on the assassination attempt
to former President Trump and a lot of dolphin fits
were shocked and appalled when the Buffalo Bills slapped him

(00:51):
around last night on Thursday Night Football thirty four to ten,
knocking to a hout with a concussion. Once again, Good morning,
and welcome to Friday the thirteenth. Though we're not superstitious,
it's just old souls living in a new, modern, chaotic
world making sense of it for everyone. This is your
morning show. I'm Michael del Journal that's Jeffrey Lyon. We're
on the air and streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.

(01:13):
A long time agos having a conversation with David Zonati,
who is our senior correspondent, and we're just talking about,
you know, radio in general and where it's gone and
how it plays into the matrix. And it's actually, if
not careful, a part of the problem. I'll give you
a great example. Imagine if all you read was Fox
News online, or all you read was The Atlantic online,

(01:37):
what would you make of this world looking through such
extreme lenses. But if you want to know what the
establishment Republicans are thinking, it can't.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Even go to Fox for true conservativism.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
But or if you want to know what the left
is thinking, go to The Atlantic, because we do have
a media cabal and it is a big issue and
a big problem, the death of journalism.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
And at the heart part of it is the Atlantic.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
If the Atlantic is saying it, the Washington Post is
getting ready to take its orders. So our journey of
discovery today, because we think journeys of discovery and us
all together going through the journey and arriving at our
conclusion is probably the best way to understand the hour
we're living in with such conflicting messages. So first and foremost,

(02:23):
it's the Atlantic, second and foremost collectively, it's more of
a manifesto than it is news stories. And what does
it point to something? You're all sensing that policies are
being abandoned. That's why you have no specificity, nobody specific
about anything. They don't have to be. It's either personality, identity, politics,
and just abandon policy one hundred percent except abortion, and

(02:46):
abortion is no longer even a policy, as written by
David Zanati. It's now a sacrament to repair the grievance
of injustices of pregnancy and triumph over the natural order
with scientific remedies see Atlantic script. And you can expect
all the media to conform. From that point, we launch
off host of the Public Square, heard on two hundred stations,

(03:08):
and our senior correspondent on your morning show, David Zanatti
joins us, what are you sensing reading the Atlantic and
why do you come to a thesis.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Statement like that?

Speaker 4 (03:17):
Well, Michael, what's going on coming off of the debate
is crystal clear. The Atlantic had five articles hit immediately
the evening of the debate. Now they've been integrated into
their format since that time, but they would the five lead,
punch you in the face articles, and every one of
them was absolutely fascinating. Now, the thing about The Atlantic is,

(03:38):
if we were to do a survey of all your
listeners and all your markets right now, my guess is
there's not one percent of the people listening to us
right now who receive a hard copy of The Atlantic
in their mailbox once every month. It is not an
organization that has ever been designed, or at least in
recent years many decades, to reach the vast amount of Americans.

(04:02):
It is a magazine that is the intellectual base from
which everything else flows. It's the fountain head, as you
rightly described.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Do you think if I went to universities into offices
of professors and deans, I'd find a copy? Do you
think I'd find one over at the Washington Post on
the editors desk are obviously probably more cleverly at home
and then doing online at work, but they're talking to
who they need to talk to. And I'll bet you
everybody listening has read or been influenced by their stories

(04:31):
through other media outlets, especially the.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
Internet and the news clips that go across all of
the congressional offices every single day will always have this information,
particularly if we're talking about the left side of the
political equation. And this is all fine. There's nothing here
that's conspiratorial. It's in plain sight. It's how the left operates.
They have their intelligentsia, and it manifests itself in writing

(04:56):
at The Atlantic. So let's look at what they had
to say about the debate, which is really sort of interesting.
The first article I think had my best attention. I
thought it was the most clever. The headline reads how
Harris roped a dope.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Making a reference to Roper dope. That was Ali versus Foreman.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
Go ahead, come on, that was great, right, and this
line himself out she stayed human when Trump went fairal
come on, that's even more clever. And then, of course
you have a picture of her in her shining glory.
Of course these pictures are black and white. You have
a picture of her just emanating a beautiful smile, she

(05:33):
lovely woman, and him screaming at her, pointing a finger
or screaming in pointing a finger in her direction. Okay,
the next one is a picture of Trump completely blurted
out of focus as if there's a drug and her
with her famous hand under the chin, elbow in the
air a shot everyone's now familiar with it. Headline reads

(05:54):
Kamala Harris's secret Weapon. It's subtitle she recognizes Trump? What
he is okay? Third one Kamala Harris broke Donald Trump.
That's the headline in the first face to face, meaning
the Democrat nominee humiliated the former president. Fourth one title,

(06:16):
what was he even talking about? Trump? Rants about immigrants
eating pets was another sign of his break with reality
And this one has a picture of really it looks
like something out of the series Dope. Sic. It looks
like someone said, like Trump's an opioid dealer or victim
one or the other.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
I mean, so this is just pure personality politics. This
is just pure politics. Has nothing to do with the
American people, where they're at, the policies and the consequences
of those policies, and how they relate to our security
or economy. That's what you mean when you say abandoned totally.
This is all just reality TV.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
There's nothing more that we are going to hear in
the balance of this campaign about policy, because The Atlantic
has rightly discerned that the consultants working with Harris, in
coordination with all of the money players and the international
people that are involved in this, including Soros and Podessa,
they have decided that Trump the way to beat Trump

(07:15):
is to finally make him the dragon and her the
dragon slayer. And that's all you're going to hear the
rest of the campaign. Well to beat He's a dragon
and she will slay him. It's all that matters.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Did you hear any of the segment I did with
the liberal patriots story, And they're talking about in essence
conceding exactly what you're saying, and that they're already celebrating
and ding dong, the.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
PABAC is dad, all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
He goes, but you got a big problem, and then
he starts going through the New York Times polling with
the working class versus the intelligency elite. That one summary
could be, this is what the Atlantic is telling all
the professors, telling all the media is the talking points.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Take this narrative and run this is it the rest
of the way.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
And he's saying, that's all fine and good, but here's
where America is at. They're focused down the economy and
we're losing the middle class by a mile. And may
I also suggest early pulling from Rasmus in nationwide? Has
Trump up by two now forty nine to forty seven,
never mind a post debate bump. And you know as
well as I do, if nationally means nothing, but Trump

(08:23):
can be losing by as much as five nationally and
he's still in the race.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
If he's up by two nationally, she's done.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
I mean, it looks like the liberal patriot kind of
sees what's coming better than the Atlantic well now.

Speaker 4 (08:37):
And I'm not suggesting that, right, I would not be
suggesting that. I'm saying that the Atlantic strategy will work.
What's telling, however, is it's now fully exposed. We've been
talking about the Pabach for a year and we could
see this coming. Now it was manifested. And that's really
how to interpret the last debate. She was only there
to do one thing, dehumanize him and make him a dragon,

(09:01):
and they were all standing in the wings with the
pictures taken. The creativity of some of these photos is remarkable.
They must have worked countless hours to be able to
get these free strames right where they wanted them. As
you say, often it's stories you cover, story you don't.
Pictures you use, pictures you don't. Okay, we see all
of that. Now she's a dragonfler. Now that relieves her

(09:21):
from having to have any policy whatsoever. She doesn't have
to talk about policy ever. Again. You talk about the
debate and asked her what was her economic policy? Well,
her economic policy was price controls that lasted for about
ten hours until it got blown up. I spoke to
a group of business people the other day, I said, twenty,
think about Kamala Harris's fifty thousand dollars federal tax cread

(09:42):
and to start a business. You should have heard the
instantaneous laugh out loud. They said, Obviously, this woman's never
owned a business.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Obviously you wouldn't.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
Need a fifty thousand dollars tax credit for about five
years if you survived as a startup anyhow, I mean,
cause you wouldn't know the government any money because you
don't make enough money to apply that credit.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
And then the money for housing, and then of course
the ultimate was the cut and paste of economic policies
from the Biden website that was extraordinarily verse. You talk
about dehumanizing all the time. We never really dust that out.
In about a minute, explain to people why you keep
your eye on the dehumanization meter. Something we do on
this new internet and media war climate, and very destructive.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
Very specifically as it applies to this race. By dehumanizing
Donald Trump and taking issues off the table, the grievance
community comes forward. This race will be determined by about
thirty two thousand votes, split up among three different states,
maybe five, maybe fifty thousand votes, but it'll be a handful.
Right now, the left has must motivate the grievance communities

(10:49):
to move them to Kamala Harris. To do that, they
must dehumanize Donald Trump. It must not be about immigration,
it must not be about taxes, It must not be
about your future. It must be about your grievances. And
so he represents the patriarchal male of the American culture.
And if they can motivate people who are angry at
men and angry at disenfranchisement, or angry at their circumstances,

(11:12):
they can and come out and vote, because when you're
really voting against Trump, you're voting justice for yourself. They
can win this election by the thinnest of margins, but
they can win it, and that's what they're going for
right now.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
So closing love So David Sinati are senior correspondent our
Journey of Discovery. Why you're hearing so little about policies,
Why it's so focused on personality, politics, demonization, dehumanization except
for abortion.

Speaker 4 (11:37):
Though, right well, abortion is one of.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
The agreements is obviously, but they get more specific on that.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
One well, And the reality of abortion is it's the
largest fraud of this election. They don't even know the facts.
I will tell you Donald Trump doesn't know the facts
about abortion. Kamala Harris doesn't know the facts about abortion.
The ABC commentators, I don't know the facts about abortion.
They let Kamala Harris get away with talking about rape
and incest as if it is some monstrously gigantic, huge

(12:08):
problem in this cultures or released to abortion. Now, rape
is a horrible problem, always a problem, and must never, ever, ever.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Ever rape and incests play in the in the number
of abortions.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
Michael, I'm going to tell you something no one else
will tell you, and it scares me to say it
out loud. We've been researching that question for the last year,
and you know the data is not available. There are
projections by good Mocker of one percent being rape in
regards to the reason why people have abortions. It's based
on a telephone survey. There is no reporting of that data.

(12:41):
There is no reporting of that data. Michael, that's goannatic.
How much the candidate says it, it's not there.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
And then what percentage is now pharmaceutical versus procedural That.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Only comes up with that.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
We do know relatively well, because they're quite proud of that.
It's about sixty percent. It's really the growth market and
the abortion industry. About sixty percent of abortions that are
done by chemicals.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
And buried somewhere in there is what some kind of
a disdain for the government. How dare the government tell
a woman what she can do with her body? First,
they'll tell you what you can do about where you work,
where you live, whether your work can be open, how
it's run, whether you could have a gun. They can
tell you everything. How dare you tell ayone what to
do with their body? And then, yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
Michael's become a symbol. It's a symbol of every woman
who feels disenfranchised or having been abused or disappointed in life.
They've transferred all of that, and we all feel that
everybody has had those hard knocks in life, male and female.
They're trying to aggravate the grievance community and focus it
toward the only issue that they can, But of course
the issue has disappeared. We're no longer talking about terminating

(13:50):
a pregnancy. We're talking about enshrining a right, a right
that's not in our Declaration, that's not in our Constitution,
the Northwest Ordinance, the Bill of Rights, or any founding
American document never been considered.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
David, there were moments of human right.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
There were moments through that debate it was as if
abortion is life. It's the celebration of life, the saving
of life, the virtue of life. When the when, the
whole conversation is the death of determination of the baby.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
And that's how Twilllet has gotten.

Speaker 4 (14:18):
What's interesting about that is the ABC commentator made that
pathetically absurd comment about no state in the Union is
it legal to kill a live child. No kidding. So
let me tell you something else. No state in the
Union has a law that prohibits abortion to save the
life of a mother. Never has in this country. Protecting
the life of the mother has always been the first

(14:39):
priority and has always been protected in law. And there's
one other point that's absolutely absurd. Mind I say this
team thirty seconds, there's no way in the world you
could create a legislative duplication of Roe versus Wade. When
they say we'll restore Roe versus Way, that's a joke.
Ro versus Weight is a series of legal court decisions
where the bench was making it up as they went along.

(14:59):
You couldn't match that in legislation. You couldn't do it.
And right now there are nine states that have already
gone past row. They're already with more abortion provisions than
road provided. So that whole thing about right, it's all
a joke if you study the facts. They're just making
it up because they don't.

Speaker 5 (15:16):
Know the fact.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
So that's our journey of discovery.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
The Atlantic in a series of articles, really a manifesto
giving the marching orders to the cabal of the media
and certainly to the intelligency in America, and certainly to
the Harris campaign. No need to talk politics, no need
to be specific. Let's just make him the boogeyman, dehumanize
him as the devil, and let's get all the grievance
community to pile on to abortion and let's try to

(15:40):
I guess identity politic our way through this. So don't
expect much focus on policies.

Speaker 4 (15:46):
What you're saying, Kamala the Dragons later.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Might make a good cartoon, doesn't help me with mortgage rates,
insurance rates, grocery costs, or energy.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
But we'll see.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
It doesn't look like there's a big debate bump for her.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
In fact, Donald Trump is now leading nationally.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
There might be something they're missing, and that is never
underestimate the American people when it counts the most to
get things.

Speaker 5 (16:14):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chno.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
This is your morning show. I'm Michael del Jerno. Jeffrey
Lyon at the controls. If you're just waking up. Donald
Trump says there will be no third second debate. We'll
ask him why he came to that conclusion. Friday, with
forty five coming up next hour, a Georgia judge is
dismissing two criminal counts against the former president. So I
guess you could say he was fact checked from the

(16:39):
debate by a judge in George. I think that's five
struck down. Royal'll give us the number. I think it's
eight that still remain or somewhere in that range. And
Boeing workers voted to go on strike, and as I
said earlier, Royo Neil, that can only make plan safer.
But anyway, I diagree we were talking. By the way,
we are going.

Speaker 6 (16:58):
To hear from those two stranded astronauts.

Speaker 7 (17:00):
Got a press conference today, the first time they're going
to speak since they were told they're not coming home
till February.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
That's Butcher and Sonny. They're gonna get a movie. It'd
be like a Butcher and Sonny movie. Then I saw
this little headline, this is like a this scream talk
to Rory about it, and that is Apparently.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Kamala Harris's team has taken on.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
Some strategists and campaign strategists from the Obama era, which
might suggest they know they've got work to do with
the middle class and they get out to vote with
youth and people of color.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
But that's interesting because remember.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
That that Biden and Obama apparatus has now become Harris
and Obama apparatus, which is really a Clinton apparatus with Harris.
So how they're all getting along. Must be oh to
be a fly on the wall. But that's just some
of the interesting breaking news.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
Of the day. So who's left at CNN?

Speaker 4 (17:56):
Then?

Speaker 1 (17:58):
And then you and I were talking off year.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
Jeffrey and I are convinced that we'd be a top
rated show if we just aired what we do during
the commercials instead of what we do during the show.
But we were talking about so, you know, there's all
these memes just nothing. Well, a picture paints a thousand words, right,
but the memes just reflect the extremes of our country.
And so this one is just you know, and then
there's somebody that's looking at this meme by the way, seriously,

(18:23):
but it's it's got eagles flying, the Declaration of Independence
is made to be blue like the sky with clouds.
Trump is centered with this fist in the air bleeding
from the assassination attempt. Then you got Tulsey, Gabber, Elon Musk,
jd Vance, Rfk, Junior Vibek Ramaswami.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
But then they threw in the.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
Corner the three seconds Biden had the magat on the
other day, and I'm thought, oh, memes, they say it all,
why but we you know, we're all just trying to
get by.

Speaker 7 (18:53):
Well, are you gonna we don't have to stoop to
that level because we don't have the visual.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Yeah we don't. That's right.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
We can just make Snyder marks and move on. All right, So,
very unimpressive interest rate reduction, not the big one we
were expecting, but there is enough coming by way of
mortgage rates that's got things moving.

Speaker 7 (19:12):
That's good news. Yeah, it's starting to shake a little bit.
Here's look, it's a big tanker, we it. It takes
a long time to start to maneuver it. Right, We'll
get that FED interest rate decision next week. But the
inflation was a little bit warmer, so people think now
that instead of a half, it'll only be a quarter.

Speaker 6 (19:27):
Let's wait and see what happens. I guess next week.

Speaker 7 (19:29):
But Redfin reporting the median monthly household payment two five
hundred and fifty eight dollars is.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Down one point three percent from a year ago. All right,
down one percent from a year ago. What would that
look like four years ago, eight years ago, ten years ago.

Speaker 6 (19:46):
Well, I mean then you'd have two percent. Yeah, would
be significantly low.

Speaker 7 (19:49):
Because think think of it this way, pre pandemic your
mortgage payments are now ninety percent high, well, probably eighty
five percent time.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
They were a pre pandemic. Unbelievable since the moved.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yep, all right, so media now is twenty five to
fifty eight a Quarter's not gonn affect that very much.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
All a halfway have affected that very much.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
You know, Well, we're all dancing around, Rory by the way,
do we need to be gone in fifty seconds?

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Three minutes? Three minutes? Okay? We all dance arounds and
never bring it up. What is the magic number?

Speaker 2 (20:18):
You know, like somebody's sitting on a home it's maybe
doubled even more in value, but they're in the twos
or the low threes. What's it going to take for
it to make sense for them to get the same
kind of a home, same quality of home, without having
to go way up in price. Well, it's certainly not
going to be six location location right, Well you could move, yeah,
you can change location, but you know it's not certainly

(20:40):
not six nine point nine percent mortgage rate?

Speaker 1 (20:42):
But is it?

Speaker 2 (20:43):
Is it when we dip into the fours? Is it
when we're in the high fours? I think it's somewhere
in there don't you.

Speaker 7 (20:49):
I think it's also going to depend on a person's age,
not because of their retirement, but because you know, people
our age. And remember fourteen percent mortgage rates, and we
could say, all right, well, look, you know six percent
is more normal.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
I remember my father, by the way, we lived in
a home in Kenner, Louisiana. It was in a golf neighborhood,
very upper upper middle class, nice neighborhood, and the home
was ninety thousand dollars in nineteen seventy eight. But I
was shocked one time when my dad mentioned the interest
rate was almost fifteen percent, And I'm like, on a house,

(21:26):
you know, so you say that, I certainly don't remember
that in my I do remember one time, about nineteen
ninety five, I refinanced my home to fifteen years in.
The interest rate was seven and a half, and I
thought that was incredible. You know, now I'm sitting with
two point eight, you.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Know what I mean. It's so it's all relative, but
I just don't know what the number.

Speaker 7 (21:45):
Yeah, the eighties were in the twelves and the eighties
were in the teens, for sure.

Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, But I think somewhere to really get it moving
is low fives high fours, and then I think the
dam breaks and it starts moving on if we can
get there.

Speaker 6 (21:57):
Right, Yeah, well that's that's the issue.

Speaker 7 (22:00):
And of course the inventory constraint, you know, yeah, just
more supply out there.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
But that's part of the inventory stories that people hanging
out of their homes and not selling. But one thing
that's very interesting, I think you're just uncertainty. Isn't that
always the killer? And when people get a sense, they
might move in the fives thinking well it'll be in
the fours and a couple of years, i'll refinance, but
they got to see that on the horizon too. That
factors in. But this is I mean, it's the right direction,
but a long way to go.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, but we know.

Speaker 7 (22:26):
People are on their sidelines now waiting for that quarter
point half point change. So they're waiting like, all right,
well I like the house, but I'm gonna wait for
that to drop a half point because then the cost
of refinancing oftentimes doesn't justify just a half point, but
you want the saving, you know.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
So there's all that stuff going forward.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
No matter who wins the presidential election. Washington is making
extraordinary security plans for January sixth. Roy O'Neil has that
story when he comes back next hour. Rory, thanks for reporting,
all right, if you are more joining us, these are
your top five stories of the day.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
Not much change here.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
They've been fighting and Harris is still pressuring she wants
a second debate. She wants a second debate. Donald Trump
saying there will be no second debate. Ed Mattinson says
this is a road to the White House.

Speaker 8 (23:13):
Road to the White House. Twenty twenty four, Vice President
Harris is once again calling for a second debate with
former President Trump. At a campaign event in Charlotte, North Carolina, Thursday,
Harris said she believes the candidates owe it to the
voters to have another debate because.

Speaker 3 (23:28):
This election and what is at stake could not be
more important.

Speaker 8 (23:34):
Not long after Tuesday's debate, the Harris campaign said the
Democratic presidential nominee wanted a second debate. In a truth
social post shortly before Harris took the stage, Trump said
there would not be a third presidential debate. Trump claimed
poll's a clearly show he won the debate with Harris,
and the first words out of a prize fighter when
they lose is I want to rematch road to the

(23:55):
White House, I met Mattinson.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
So there's some in the debate where Kamala nut cackling
accus Donald Trump of everything coming out of his mouth
is a lie. One of the things that came out
of his mouth was I got a judge getting ready
to drop more cases from Georgia.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
Well, he was fact checked by a judge in Georgia who.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
Dismissed two criminal counts against the former president and election interference.
Scott Carr has the details.

Speaker 9 (24:16):
In a ruling thursday, Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee said
the state's prosecutors don't have the authority to bring the
two particular charges against Trump since they fall under the
supremacy Clause and the Constitution that bars state prosecutors from
charging federal crimes. They are related to his alleged filing
of false documents in a federal court. Though, Judge McAfee

(24:38):
is allowing eight charges against the former president to stand,
including a charge of racketeering.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
I'm Scott Carr.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Well, it's nice to see some people are catching on
that North Carolina is huge. Vice President Harris was back
in the campaign trail following the debate, and where did
she go North Carolina, touting recent endorsements from high profile conservatives.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
Former Vice President and Dick Cheney and Congresswoman Liz Cheney
are supporting me as well.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
What a blow.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
First of all, I can't imagine many independent voters that
are on the fence saying, oh well, if Dick Cheney's
for Kamala, I'm on, all right, let aloneer base. I mean,
you make we say pub blotch, that's Italian for the boogeyman.
You make Donald Trump out to be the boogeyman. Dick

(25:28):
Cheney really is the boogeyman. I don't know what this
whole thing is about. It doesn't seem to be resonating
with anybody, but the polls and the key battleground state
have shown Harris and Trump in a very tight race.
Democrats have not won the state of North Carolina since
Barack Obama in two thousand and eight. And Jeffrey, can
I do it because it's easy? Oh yeah, I have
been in the room with Barack Obama. Man, Kamala Harris

(25:51):
is no Barack Obama. Nice uh for Donald Trump. I
get going to the West coast Arizona. Nevetti, you gotta
sure that up, show me how Tulsey, RFK, Vivek and
Elon are working Wisconsin and Michigan. And why isn't Trump
living in Georgia, North Carolina and Pennsylvania Because guess where

(26:14):
He's going next?

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Long Island, New York. Natalie Migliori has more.

Speaker 10 (26:19):
The Republicans hosting a rally at Nasau Coliseum in Uniondale
next Wednesday at seven pm. The then you can hold
up to roughly sixteen thousand people. Trump's campaign says his
remarks will focus on the economy and the situation at
the US Mexico border. Former New York Congressman Lee Zelden,
who ran for governor against current Governor Kathy Hochel, is
helping to promote the event. Former President Trump was in

(26:40):
the Hamptons last month for a campaign fundreser event.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
I'm Natalie mcliori ABC News Radio New York.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
JP Morgan and Bank of America are imposing new measures
to help keep junior bankers from working too many hours.
Tammy Truquilo has more.

Speaker 11 (26:54):
JP Morgan's instituting an eighty hour weekly cap and Back
of America is going to start using a new timekeeping
system to better monitor the hours actually worked. The moves
come after allegations that junior bankers have been pressured to
falsify their working hours, making it seem as though they
were working fewer hours than they actually were. I'm Tammy Trhuo.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
Yeah, I was a bank teller. That was my first
job and it was good, really balanced out every night.
By the way, Donald Trump has an answer for that
as well. He's pledging to eliminate taxes on all overtime
that had to go along with taxes on tips. It's
only a matter of time before Harris joins them. I'm
sure watch me. British pop star and my favorite Dualika
is going to bring her Radical Optimism Tour to North

(27:36):
America next year. I'm gonna kick off in Toronto on
September the first. She'll play a total of twenty shows
in ten cities, including Boston, New York, and Los Angeles.
The tour wraps up on October sixteenth. In one of
our Your Morning show cities Seattle, Washington, Thursday night football,
Buffalo roughed up the Dolphins, even knock too out of
the game with yet another concussion. Dolphins lose thirty one

(27:59):
to ten home in Miami to Buffalo Cardinals one raise
one Guardians Mariners, and NAT's lost in baseball, the d
Backs in first place. We're off birthdays. You know you're
getting old when the Wonder Years Kid is forty four. One,
Direction's Nile Horn thirty one. The Beautiful Exotic Jacqueline Bissett
is eighty today, And I'll never forget. I was having

(28:22):
an interview with Peter Sata and the person said, Hey,
Peter's going to talk about anything, just don't talk about Chicago.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
Oh how do you do that interview?

Speaker 2 (28:32):
But you know he was a great solo act, a
great songwriter, but the distinctive voice, lead voice, one of
the lead voices of Chicago. Peter stera eighty years old today.
But your birthday, Happy birthday. We're so glad you were born.
And thanks for waking up with your morning show.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Hey, I'm Olympic gold medalist Scott Hamilton.

Speaker 8 (28:53):
And my morning show is your morning show with Michael
del Jornan.

Speaker 12 (28:58):
I remember the day was August third, nineteen eighty one.
On one hundred and thirteen thousand dollars house that I
built by interest rate was a paltry sixteen and three
quarters percent in the Miami Fort Lauderdale area. That was
reduced to around twelve percent within about six years. Sixteen
three quarters percent at that time was.

Speaker 6 (29:19):
The highest mortage rate in the nation.

Speaker 9 (29:22):
You guys had a great day.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
I mean, that's like buying a house with a credit card.
Sixteen and three quarter.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
I think I bought my first home, I think in
nineteen ninety two, and I remember the interest rate was
in the nines. And then I bought another house, was
somewhere around ninety six or ninety seven. I refinanced at
fifteen years at seven and a half percent, and that stuck.
I remember that, and I remember I thought that was
real low. And some of us are sitting in the
twos now. So yeah, interest rates are relative depending on

(29:48):
their time in history. One Democrat believes Americans are going
to be shocked and appalled when an interim report on
the assassination attempt on former Trump is President Trump is released.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
We're already shocked and appalled, So what's in this?

Speaker 2 (30:01):
Donald Trump says there will be no second debate, and
Attorney General Merrick Garland is responding to criticism that the
Department of Justice is being used as a political weapon.
Our White House correspondent John Decker is joining us with
what he plans to do to put all our minds at.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Ease and respond to this allegation. Good morning, John, Hey.

Speaker 13 (30:18):
Michael, how are you?

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Good morning? And half good morning Friday to you the thirteenth. Hey,
there you go.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
I'm not suspicious. I'm not suspicious either. I don't believe
in any of them.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Yeah, that's no. I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
What about this report, John, What do you expect Garland
to defend the Department of Justice or investigate, find out
and stop it?

Speaker 1 (30:40):
Which is it?

Speaker 13 (30:41):
Well, this is a speech that the Attorney General made
yesterday at the Department of Justice to the career people
who work at the Department of Justice as well as
the US attorneys gathered in Washington, DC yesterday, and what
he said is that he will not allow the DOJ
to be used as a political weapon. And a reminder

(31:02):
for all of those who are concerned, who are upset
the Department of Justice bringing federal charges against Donald Trump.
The Department of Justice also brought federal charges against Hunter Biden,
and they won convictions against Hunter Biden. And the point
that Merrick Carland was making is that the DOJ the

(31:23):
people that work for the DOJ. They take an oath,
an oath to the Constitution, and they follow the facts
wherever the facts leads them in any particular case.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
Yeah, and there's people screaming at the radio Hunter Biden,
not Joe Biden. I know, that's another argument we don't
want to have. I want to talk to the attorney
because you're a Supreme Court bar attorney. One of the
greatest disgraces was the OJ trial because most people don't
understand the law, most people don't have jury in courtroom experience,
and a disproportionate amount of Americans formed their opinion of

(31:56):
our judicial system based on that case. As somebody who
was stud the law past the bar has served in law.
That must horrify you that anyone would think the way
our justice system works based on the OJ trial. And
we could say the same for the way we kind
of politicize some of these cases too, Right. Isn't that
the heart of the problem, because you know, some of
these do stink to high heaven and that's the ones

(32:19):
that one side will focus on, and so perception becomes reality.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
And I don't think there's anything you can say in
a speech that's going to change.

Speaker 4 (32:26):
That, well, that's right.

Speaker 13 (32:28):
You know, the dj is an institution, and you know
it's important I think that, you know, we respect our institutions,
that we have confidence in our institutions. And growing up,
I don't know about you, Michael, I never thought about,
you know, questioning the DOJ or the Justice Department, or

(32:50):
for that matter, our system of justice. But you know,
you mentioned the OJ Simpson trial. That was an instance
in which, you know, I think it will people up
that not everybody in America trusts the legal system. Not
everybody in America trusts the institution of our court system.
And you know, I think that that is something that

(33:12):
our leaders need to do, is to make sure that
we have confidence and trust in all of those things,
so that you know, we have a trust with the
decisions that are made on a daily basis, because.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
That's the statement of problem.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
There's been a loss of respect, there's been a loss
of confidence even in the election process for a good
portion of America. That all needs to be addressed in
a positive way or is going to continue to well,
like a sore, continue to agitate and ripping scabs off,
puss over again. So hopefully we'll get to That was
a discussing analogy at breakfast time. I apologize for that.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
John. No tennisvie. This weekend you'll have to suffer like
the rest of us and watch football.

Speaker 5 (33:51):
That's right, We're all in this together. This is your
morning show with Michael Hill, ruinous st
